Origin Aqueous (W-2022-3-2), 2022
watercolor on yupo paper
40 x 26 in.
(zan252)
This contemporary abstract watercolor painting features large, gestural strokes of blue, teal and brown paint in aquatic, organic shapes.
"My art practice is an exploration of the formal visual elements, as well as my personal feelings, through an intuitive, spontaneous process.
Often reminiscent of imaginary landscapes, my watercolor paintings evolve through layers of washes, with an emphasis on the mark making. There is a quiet tension between the watercolor's fluidity, softness and calm, versus the dynamic, rhythm and energy of drawing.
The spontaneous and gestural activity of mark making in my work is closely tied to calligraphy, language and symbolic communication.
In my process, I see a metaphor for the duality of life; where certain things can be controlled, while others happen spontaneously."

- Three Pyramids + Blue BallBy Alexander CalderLocated in Palm Desert, CA"Three Pyramids + Blue Ball" is a gouache on paper by Alexander Calder. The work is signed in the lower right, "Calder 73”. Although renowned for his innovative and groundbreaking sculptures, Alexander Calder started his artistic career as an abstract painter, preferring to use gouache. What is gouache? Gouache is a water-soluble paint – a type of opaque watercolor. As Calder returned to gouache painting towards the end of his life, he was now armed with a lifetime of experience as a sculptor. He explored the three-dimensional vocabulary of sculptural forms he had developed onto the two-dimensional surface of the paper. Certain shapes and colors recur throughout his gouaches and sculptures. Circles, ovals, and other geometric forms dominate the space. There is the same sense of energy and fluidity. The shapes do not sit on the surface but vibrate giving a feeling of movement in contrast to the static nature of painting. Like his sculpture, Calder’s gouache...Category
